Steps to make Fish And Chips:
- I and a large, roomy bowl, mix all but 2 tablespoons of the flour (set aside) with the cornstarch and baking powder. Season lightly with a tiny pinch of salt and pepper.
- Using a fork to whisk continuously, add Soda or the sparkling water to the flour mixture and continue mixing until you have a thick, smooth batter. Place the batter in the fridge to rest for between 30 minutes and an hour.
- Meanwhile, cut the potatoes into 1-centimeter slices (a little less than a half an inch), then slice these into 1-centimeter-wide chips. Place the chips into a colander and rinse under cold running water.
- Place the washed chips into a pan of cold water. Bring to a gentle boil and simmer for 3 to 4 minutes.
- Drain carefully through a colander then dry with kitchen paper. Keep in the fridge covered with kitchen paper until needed
- Meanwhile, lay the fish fillets on a sheet of kitchen paper and pat dry. Season lightly with a little sea salt.
- Heat the oil to 350 F in a deep fryer or large, deep saucepan. Cook the chips a few handfuls at a time in the oil for about 2 minutes. Do not brown them. Once the chips are slightly cooked, remove them from the oil and drain. Keep to one side
- Place the 2 tablespoons of flour reserved from the batter mix into a shallow bowl. Toss each fish fillet in the flour and shake off any excess
- Dip into the batter, coating the entire fillet.
- Check that the oil temperature is still 350 F. Carefully lower each fillet into the hot oil. Fry for approximately 8 minutes, or until the batter is crisp and golden, turning the fillets from time to time with a large slotted spoon.
- Once cooked, remove the fillets from the hot oil and drain on kitchen paper. Sprinkle with salt. Cover with greaseproof paper and keep hot.
- Heat the oil to 400 F then cook the chips until golden and crisp, or about 5 minutes. Remove from the oil and drain. Season with salt or chaat masala. - - Tartar Sauce - Combine everything in a mixing bowl and give it a good stir.
When the batter is set, turn the pieces of fish over and cook until golden.
